Certain Haverhill builders will naturally give a lower quotation than others, but you must ask how they can do this without scrimping or using inferior materials. As a prospective client you are within your rights to request a convincing explanation and see a break down of the costs, and if the builder is unwilling or unable to provide this it may be better to be safe than sorry and consider a different contractor for the job.

Don't make a rash decision when selecting builders in Haverhill, or feel pushed into going for one in particular; a good rule is to hold back for twenty four hours and check over all of the price quotes again. Look at what is included in the price, and even more important what ISN'T included. If there's no entry on your quote for waste removal, for instance, you need to ask if this will be included for no additional fee. Any building waste must be removed and disposed of properly and if it's not included in the quotation you must ask who is responsible for the site clearance on completion.

You might also need to confirm any fittings and fixtures you require for your build are to your specifications. This is an issue that should be made clear on your written brief given to the builder to allow him to source these accessories and make sure that they're included in the quote. If the estimate doesn't stipulate your exact accessories you could finish up with a cheaper alternative to reduce costs.

So, you have come to a decision, you have a job quote that you are happy with and you have hired your chosen builder. A contract should now be presented to you by the building firm to set out the specifics of the project. This will include such things as specifics of fittings and fixtures, the materials to be used and where to store them on site, removal of building waste and rubbish, as well as the doing any "snagging" during and at the conclusion of the project. There should also be mention of the guarantee and warranty period of the work involved.

The contract will also stipulate when and how payments need to be made for the project in question. If you are asked for a deposit you need to be cautious about paying out substantial amounts of cash to any builder before the work has even started. Bigger building projects are typically paid for in stages, and you will only pay on the completion of each stage when you are satisfied that the work has been carried out successfully.

At the conclusion of any project there needs to be a final inspection of the work between the builder and client to ensure that all construction work has been completed to a good standard and a snagging list compiled, if necessary. A snag list is a way for a builder to rectify any minor issues found at the termination of the project, and should be tackled in keeping with the the building contract that was signed by both parties. As both sides carry out a final inspection there needs to be a mutually acceptable agreement to the snagging list and explanations on how to rectify any faults discussed. Only when any snags have been put right and all work is completed to your satisfaction, should the final payment for the job be sent to the builder.
